GDPR Statement

The GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) is the most important development of Data Protection Law for decades. It’s aim when it came into effect on the 25 May 2018, was to strengthen and ultimately replace the existing Data Protection Act (1998). It was designed to protect the personal data and privacy of citizens across Europe and will not be affected by the UK’s exit from the EU.

We have reviewed our data security, privacy policies and processes to ensure that we are not only compliant but go further to ensure that your data is safe with us. Based on the research conducted both internally and externally, we are confident the measures we have introduced meet the requirements of GDPR.
